Sigma Labs Announces Reverse Stock Split to Regain Nasdaq Compliance
SANTA FE, NM / ACCESSWIRE / February 27, 2020 / Sigma Labs, Inc. (NASDAQ:SGLB) ("Sigma Labs" or the "Company"), a leading developer of quality assurance software for the commercial 3D printing industry, will effect a one-for-ten reverse stock split of its outstanding common stock to regain compliance with the minimum $1.00 bid price per share requirement of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2).
The Company's common stock will begin trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market on a split adjusted basis when the market opens on Friday, February 28, 2020 and will continue to trade under the symbol "SGLB." The new CUSIP number for the common stock following the reverse stock split will be 826598500. The number of shares of common stock that Sigma Labs is authorized to issue will correspondingly decrease from 22,500,000 shares to 2,250,000 shares.
The reverse stock split uniformly affects all issued and outstanding shares of the Company's common stock and will not alter any stockholder's percentage ownership interest in the Company, except to the extent that the reverse stock split results in fractional interests. No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the reverse stock split. Stockholders will be issued one whole share of common stock in exchange for any fractional interest that such stockholder would have otherwise received as a result of the reverse stock split. The par value of the Company's common stock will remain unchanged at $0.001 per share after the reverse stock split.
The reverse stock split will reduce the number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding from 14,500,823 shares to 1,450,083 shares, plus any shares to be issued in exchange for fractional interests. The reverse stock split proportionately affects the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the Company's equity incentive plans. All options, warrants, shares issuable upon conversion of the Company's preferred stock and stock awards of the Company outstanding immediately prior to the reverse stock split will be adjusted in accordance with their terms.
The Company's transfer agent, Issuer Direct Corporation, is acting as the exchange agent for the reverse stock split. Issuer Direct Corporation will provide instructions to stockholders of record regarding the exchange of stock certificates, as applicable, but such exchange is not required. Stockholders who hold their shares in brokerage accounts or "street name" are not required to take any action to effect the exchange of their shares. Shareholders with questions may contact the Company's transfer agent by calling 801-272-9294.
